based on Billy Joel's 'The Longest Time'
———

I went Shabbos morning off to pray
I did not think I'd be there all day
Well I have never
Been somewhere that took forever
This minyan davens for the longest time!

(Whoa -o-o-o- for the longest time…)

Mishna Yomit, Dvar Halacha too
Mi She'Berach Avoteinu
When will we finish,
I would really like some kiddush
This minyan davens for the longest time!

All day long the services go on,
Why am I here; I should be gone
I think I'll go daven somewhere else
I guess I got- more than I wanted…

Over here there seems to be a rule
Say a prayer for EVERYONE in shul
Two hours laining
Everybody is complaining
This minyan davens for the longest time!

(Whoa -o-o-o- for the longest time…)

First a speech and now there's an appeal
I just gave up on my shabbos meal
Ein Kelokeinu
Hu Yaaseh Shalom Aleinu
This minyan davens for the longest time!

Boy the rabbi's sermon sure was long,
He's always right; we're always wrong
I think I should daven somewhere else
I like it in shul but this is more than I hoped for…

Come and spend with us a Shabbos day
In my shul is where you're gonna stay
I hope you'll see that
Maybe then you will agree that
This minyan davens for the longest time!

(Whoa -o-o-o- for the longest time…)
